Nothing appears to have changed though. The PSNI decided yesterday to investigate every single serviceman who was involved in a fatal incident in NI.

Yep, every single serviceman in every single event, even if there is overwhelming evidence showing absolutely no wrongdoing, even where no formal complaint exists and even when servicemen were injured or killed during the same incident.

Somehow the word 'serviceman' has become interchangeable with 'suspect'. It should never be the case where serving in the armed forces is justification enough to be detained and questioned under PACE.
